The William Floyd School District is saddened to share the news of the passing of former William Floyd Board of Education Trustee Francis “Frank” Campbell who served on the School Board from 1971 to 1977 including as vice president (1972-1973) and president (1973-1977).

The William Floyd High School Counseling Center recently hosted the first of five on-site admissions events set to take place throughout the 2025-26 school year. On-site admissions events present students with the opportunity to talk to representatives from many different colleges and universities about their educational goals and future plans while in the hallways of their own school. Students can get their transcripts evaluated, learn about what each institution has to offer, discuss potential scholarships and, in some cases, receive immediate acceptance! This on-site admissions event was one of the most successful in school history, as 210 students met with college representatives and were offered a combined total of $1,188,000 in scholarships with even more scholarship amounts still to be determined!

Although graduation is still months away, it is time to start planning now. We begin our preparations for this ceremony with the ordering of the cap, gown, and tassel that will be worn during the commencement exercises on June 27.

The William Floyd High School Business Academy recently hosted their second annual “Women in Business” workshop, an opportunity for female high school students to learn from and network with three women entrepreneurs – Elizabeth Agosto, Holly Rae Felicetta and Marina Mentzel, who have been successful in starting and/or leading various companies.

December is here and that means it’s time for the winter concerts and art shows! This is the opportunity to hear and see all the hard work that William Floyd student-musicians and student-artists have been putting in, come to fruition! Please note that all winter concerts and art shows will be held in the William Floyd High School auditorium.

Just before the Thanksgiving break, William Floyd Elementary School special education classes participated in a balloon parade modeled after the iconic Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade!
